East/West Samhain Autumn Harvest Celebration

This event brings a touch of Samhain magic to East and West Belfast, where Templemore Baths, Banana Block and Cultúrlann McAdam Ó Fiaich will join forces for a celebration inspired by Samhain, exploring the folklore, stories and seasonal traditions shared across Belfast's diverse cultural communities.

The event will invite visitors to journey between venues, experience different cultural spaces and discover the connections between traditions that have been passed down through generations, connecting us all as one regardless of how we celebrate. With storytelling, entertainment and seasonal-specific creative activities, the celebration promises an opportunity for families, friends and neighbours to enjoy a little seasonal magic while discovering something new about the city's cultural heritage.
